    North Oaks ER should be ashamed of themselves. I went in last night with terrible abdominal pain. Let them know it was a 10 in pain level and reoccurring every 20 seconds. They took some blood, checked my heart out, gave me Zofran and put me in the waiting room for 4 hours. We ended up just leaving. Can't wait to get a bill for nothing. This was terrible. Will never go back. Do not recommend anyone to go here.

    I went Monday night to have stitches in my foot. Slow people. I spent the whole night there because of Incompetent people. The real kicker was when I was being discharged. The young girl that removed my IV just abruptly ripped it out of my arm.
    It tore an elongated hole. It wouldn't stop bleeding until the next day. I would never go to North Oaks Hospital. A veterinarian would have been better.

    This is my second time at this hospital for a family member. The ER has the most ridiculous wait times I have ever seen. I've worked in healthcare for over 16 years and this, is a first for me... I definitely do not recommend, especially if you're actually having an emergency
